Cae Ddol translates to "castle park".

Caer is the Celtic word for fort, or castle. I'm not sure about Ddol, but usually it would be which castle. For example, it's possible that "Camelot" was originally "Caer Mallot," or Castle of the Hammer (Mallot). Since the hammer was the traditional weapon of the king, it would have meant "Castle of the King."
